[AfricaRealities.com] Missionary named in the New Year Honours List is shot by bandits

 

We condom this crime against an elderly  innocent humanitarian  worker who have been helping Congolese people for decades. We urge the Government of DRC to find the criminals so that they face justice. The Government of DRC should make sure all international humanitarian workers  are properly protected.

She is said to be in a stable condition in hospital.
Ms Kells has served in the African country since 1968, working initially as a missionary nurse and has helped train Congolese nurses in five hospitals and 30 health centres.
